How time has been flying this month. Do you feel the same way? I can't believe that Christmas is 6 days away! And that we're almost in 2010!
I just wanted to show you my little vintage deer collection...if you can call 3 a collection. These little guys are getting harder and harder to find! I've been trying to buy a new one every year for the last couple of years. Well, without shopping online. Sometimes collecting things online is a little too easy, I like the thrill of the hunt. ;)
This guy is my favorite. He's so prance-y. I love his jaunty bell, gold antlers and pink ears.
I like this one because he's little and fancy. He has a shiny gold bow tie and is very cute! I got the white Christmas cottage and silver bottle brush tree at Target, they have lots of fun sparkly pastel Christmas cottages in their Christmas section this year. I love them!
And this one is, well, a little pathetic. This is my new deer for this year, I rescued him from one of the local thrift stores. His flocking is almost totally off of his head and he looks more alien than deer. Poor little guy. Look at those antlers though!! At least he has something to be proud of.
Hope you have a great weekend!
When I was at the antique mall on Thanksgiving, I saw these two beautiful deer book ends. I stared at them for who knows how long.. They were perfect, but a little too expensive, for me. You should see if they are still there too add to your collection! (When you first walk in turn to the left and go all the way to the corner, turn right and follow the book cases along the right and that's where I found them.) Sad that I remember, huh?!

That is so funny Debbie knows right were to go in a store so big and busy. I take everyone that comes to town there if for anything else then to remember their child hood.
